Yes. This is my old neighborhood in Calabasas Angel Sanchez Jr. arrested for punching a man pushing his 10-month-old granddaughter in a stroller. 29-year-old Sanchez was arrested in Oxnard following the attack in Calabasas, California. pic.twitter.com/swMRdRyzCE — BoreCure (@CureBore) December 7, 2023 Taxes are more than the $/gallon charge.

Miraje, gotta love the Democratic People's Republic of California. They tax gas heavily and adopt every policy imaginable to discourage gas consumption, only to end up with less and less gas tax revenue: California Gas Tax Revenue Will Drop By $6 Billion, Threatening Roads (SFGate) Shouldn't California be celebrating this? Shouldn't less and less gas tax revenue prove that California is leading the nation toward a future free of fossil fuels? Gavin Newsom himself should be showing up at a renewable energy plant under a banner saying "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED" Instead, they're bemoaning the loss of gas tax revenue because of how that could affect road maintenance. But wait! Why should California keep maintaining its roads anyway? Shouldn't everyone be taking buses, trains, and other forms of mass transit? Maybe the roads SHOULD be maintained less. Maybe the roads SHOULD rot away, develop tire-eating potholes during every storm, so that fewer and fewer people would be encouraged to drive on them. Maybe we SHOULD move to a future where walkable and bikable cities are a thing, where development centers around mass transit, and where smog-producing (and globe-warming) highways are a thing of the past. Anything is possible if we all collectively put our minds to it! After all, we put a man on the moon. We moved away from horses and carriages. We stand for "progress." Can't spell "progressive" without the "progress," right comrade? Tenchusatsu

More from the Democratic People's Republic of California: California’s budget deficit swells to record $68B as tax revenue falls (Politico) The Democrats keep telling us that there is no recession, that inflation is under control, more jobs are being "created," and Brandonomics is working. So why is California, who was once bragging about a budget surplus, now facing a $68B shortfall? The answer should be obvious. The producers, the ones who actually pay taxes, are leaving the state. The moochers, especially the fentanyl zombies, are moving into the state. There is no surer vote than that made by one's feet. And Gavin Newsom wants to go around telling OTHER governors how to run THEIR states? LOL ... Tenchusatsu
